Dodging obst acles in Auto mode
In order to avoid an obstacle when your vessel is under autopilot
control, select a course change in the appropriate direction (for
example, port 30∞ = press –10 three times).
ïWhen safely clear of the obstacle, you can reverse the previous
course change (for example, press +10 three times), or return to the
previous locked heading (LAST HDG).

Standby) you can return to the previous locked heading:
1. Press auto for 1 second. The previous locked heading (LAST HDG)
is displayed for 7 seconds.
